Campanelle with Roasted Vegetables and Marinara
We were having friends over for dinner. I wanted to serve something simple, healthy, and hearty. Since I loved the Roasted Garlic and Basil Marinara so much, I decided to make that again and mix it with campanelle pasta and roasted vegetables. We served this dish with a tossed green salad and freshly baked bread. A delicious dinner that we all loved, including the kids.
Campanelle with Roasted Vegetables and Marinara:
Ingredients:
- Olive oil
- 10 spears of asparagus, ends trimmed, cut into thirds
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 8 oz button mushrooms, quartered
- 1 small red onion, quartered
- 2-3 red and yellow baby bell peppers, sliced
- 5-6 cloves of garlic (keep skins on for roasting)
- Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
- Dried basil, to taste
- 1 lb campanelle pasta
- Roasted Garlic and Basil Marinara
- Asiago, grated
- Fresh basil, chopped
How to Make Campanelle with Roasted Vegetables and Marinara
Prepare the Roasted Garlic and Basil Marinara then let it simmer.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with tin foil (for easy clean up) then coat with cooking spray.
Place the onions, mushrooms, bell pepper, and garlic (keep the skins on so they don’t burn while roasting) on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with dried basil, sea salt, and pepper to taste. Place in the oven and roast for 20 minutes.
After the veggies have roasted for 20 minutes, place the asparagus and zucchini on the baking sheet, drizzle with a bit more oil, and re-season with a bit more basil, salt, and pepper.
Roast for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside. Once the garlic has cooled, carefully remove the skins and slice then return to the rest of the veggies.
Prepare the campanelle per instructions. Grate the asiago and chop the fresh basil.
Once the pasta is cooked, add the marinara to the pasta until evenly coated. Add the roasted veggies and fresh basil then mix gently; top with asiago. Enjoy.
This is definitely a meal worth making more than once. Looks really good amd healthy indeed. Veggie goodness.

Oh, yes please. This looks light years better than the lunch I just had…
It looks so hearty and is very colorful!
I made the same recipe on Friday night, we are definitely on the same wave length. I just used penne!!!
i love the shape of that pasta and the way it feels in your mouth. i'm also a huge fan of any pasta dish incorporating red sauce–forget alfredo, give me marinara!
What a dish, there is something about roasted vegggies eh? Roasted Garlic… they are so WORTH all the peeling.
Lucky dinner guests! 🙂
It looks delicious! Can i come over for dinner?
I was just reading your comment to me about loving roasted veggies and thinking how I knew that about you, and here is a wonderful recipe featuring 'em. Looks awesome.
I've never had campanelle. Looks like a fun pasta.
Who says health eating can’t be good? Your simple, yet fulfilling entrée is an example that it can be. I love the colors, the combination of flavors and its ease.
I definitely will be trying this! Many thanks…
I love the flavor of roasted veggies with pasta. We have so many wonderful choices right now. And I have lots of homemade marinara sauce. Looks divine, Pam.
Looks good and I KNOW it tasted great as I've made your marinara. I'd like to try making it into a soup!
